A Golden Farce
The golden apple
Is beautiful in form
Invaluable in its worth
But wholly undesirable
As apples go
Is beautiful in form
Invaluable in its worth
But wholly undesirable
As apples go
It cannot be eaten, as intended
It cannot bear fruit
It is useful only to admire
How the apple, then
Longs not to be so,
Gilded by the touch of another
So that its life is spent
In useless admiration
